If you work with parents who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or frustrated, this is their reset: one simple framework you can share to help them quickly shift the dynamics at home.

Today’s episode is your go-to guide for helping parents understand the ‘whole family nervous system’—the hidden, powerful connection that influences how parents and kids react to stress.

Lynn is joined by Emma Johnston and Eleanor Mann, founders of The Reconnected, who have supported over 100,000 families in moving from tension and reactivity to connection and ease. Their approach blends breathwork, nervous system regulation, and play therapy, offering practical tools you can pass on to your clients for immediate and lasting change.

✨Episode Highlights:

• A child’s ability to self-regulate is directly tied to their caregivers’ nervous system state.
• Breathwork can help release stored stress and expand capacity for calm, connected responses.
• Children’s primary healing tool is play — the caregiver’s role is to be present and attuned while they express themselves.
• Old reaction patterns come from past experiences; but self-regulation can break these patterns.
• A supportive community is a powerful catalyst for sustained family change.

What if your client’s symptoms weren’t what they seemed? In this episode, Lynn unpacks a session working with a postpartum client whose orthopedic complaints—leg weakness, knee irritation, constipation, and squat pain—led to surprising discoveries deep in the pelvis. Each release revealed new layers: from sacral flexion and a tucked cervix to a bound utero-sacral ligament that instantly shifted motor control and pelvic floor function. Just when the picture seemed complete, the body exposed one last twist—an old ankle sprain still holding tension from high school. This episode is a powerful reminder that the body always tells the story— when we’re willing to listen to it.

✨ Episode Highlights:

• Identifying sacral flexion and ischial splaying patterns postpartum
• Releasing a tight utero-sacral ligament for better pelvic mobility
• Restoring pelvic floor balance and effortless activation
• Resolving orthopedic symptoms (knee tracking, squat pain) through pelvic alignment
• Discovering how old injuries and stored energy show up in postpartum recovery
